Sporting events
Now in Quebec we go see a sporting events. There are many different sports and sporting events but there is one particular sport that we must see when we am in Canada. Any one guess? Of course it would be a hockey game played in the country that it came from. we would see have a would be a professional game, or even a childs game of hockey we think it would still be cool to see one. But the most prefered kind of game we would like to see would be a professional one because they are professionals.

Souvenir Purchases
As we travel around Quebec more specifically Quebec city we are sure to find some interesting souvenirs to bring back from my trip. That is if I don't eat most of it first.
One of the things that we would by would be a chunk of chocolate from the Choco-Musée Érico. you can't really resist chocolate. And were pretty sure no one can either. And what's more is that it is made right there so you are pretty much guaranteed to have very good chocolate. we just hope we don't eat it all.
Another thing we think It would be cool to buy Canadian maple syrup. If it comes from that country then were sure it would be awesome. Either way we would have bought some anyway just to take home. And as well as to use on waffles and pancakes.

Enough about food souvenirs I would also buy some crafts. sand sculptures . we would especially buy something that is made out of glass or metal such as something made out of bronze or iron.
